Star Performer of the Weekend

This weekend saw top quality action take place in the UK at Beverley, Chester and Sandown, as well as in Ireland at the Curragh, and we want to know who your Star Performer of the Weekend was and why.

The first Class 1 contest of the day took place at Beverley, with the Bullet Sprint taking centre stage at the Yorkshire track, where Democracy Dilemma (8/1) provided a slight shock result as the gelding made all for Robert Cowell. The trainer landed the race for the first time ever ahead of the well supported Albasheer (9/2) who finished second for Archie Watson.

It was a day for the favourites in the Group 3 contests at Sandown, as Tamfana (13/8) took the spoils in the Atalanta Stakes before Field Of Gold (5/4) obliged in the Solario Stakes later on the card.

Over at Chester, Willie Mullins took the feature race –  the Listed Chester Stakes – as Absurde (5/2) overturned well backed favourite Caius Chorister (15/8). Elsewhere on the card, the Coral Racing Club's very own trainer, Hugo Palmer, landed a quickfire double on the card with Balon d'Or (11/2) and It Ain't Two (7/2) winning back-to-back races for the local trainer.

Over the Irish Sea, there were also three Group 3 contests taking place at the Curragh, with short price favourites Dreamy (6/5) and Ides Of March (2/5) landing a double for the dream team of Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore, before Tarawa (11/2) denied the pair a treble of Group 3 wins, beating favourite Wingspan (7/4) a length and a quarter into third.
